I don't think it's going to be a thrashy job, but i do think we will have too much for them, so 2-1 to the City. Take the lead, they equalise and then Armstrong to bag the winner.

Saying that though, if we play well I won't be too unhappy with a draw. Just think a good win though will get punters back on seats for the next home game, whereas a draw for many will be a big disappointment.


And we need those bums on seats!!

A draw would be a disappointment.

Crewe look poor and there to be beaten.

Can't believe that at my age I'm feeling nervous about a football game. Used to as a kid going up Highfield rd...butterflies of anticipation. But not for a long while. Yet this morning, after the promising start we have had, I'm a bag of nerves, excited and eager to get to the Ricoh but worried that the dream will just be smoke and mirrors. Hopefully this season we the supporters, the players and TM can restore a bit of faith and pride in ccfc. PUSB

Pretty much how im feeling, almost want it over and done with so i can stop feeling so nervous. You know your team has been crap in recent years, when your body prefers to feel nervous instead of excited as it is so used to it ending in disappointment lol...

This could be the catalyst to much more. Two games, nice as it is, doesn't really count as a run, but a third and taking into account the opposition in those first two (albeit a great time to have played them) and I think we will see some genuine belief. Another win tonight and we will pretty much guarantee being in and around that top area for some time, which will breed confidence and help TM to get some nice loan additions once the permanent market closes. I too am a little anxious, but really looking forward to it - my first real game of the season too as I was on holiday for the opening game.

yes but at same time 7 from 3 and remaining unbeaten would still be reasons for optimism

It would. It's only one game, and a poor result would be balanced out by a good one v Wigan, but Crewe are the kind of side who we should be looking to beat if we've got any aspirations for this year.

Arguably the pressure was off v Wigan, it'll be another indicator how we perform when we have to be the assertive team.

Really looking forward to this one, we should get at least a point, going for a 2-0 win though

The club are now self sustainable and we the fans are doing our bit by turning up. Over 11k tonight easily I reckon and I cant see anything but a win. Is that light I can see at the end of this tunnel?

This will be a tough game. Crewe won't give us the space Milwall and Wigan allowed. Scrappy 1-0 win.

Hopefully be a good atmosphere again and a bit of a buzz about the football team.

Just need the telegraph and the local press to get behind and get as many up there as possible. No doubt if we win tonight there will be some sort of negative news ready to be posted to get people into a frenzy.

If we can get any form of three points it will be a good result, I would be concerned that it'd be one of them where they get a dodgy 1-0 from a counter attack but I think we'll be fine with Reda and Ricketts

Crewe Manager says we always beat them at the Ricoh will go to oppose ourselves and stamp our authority, they are the same side as last season just a couple of new additions... What a prick

Good. Let them think that. They'll be 3-0 down before they know what's happening.

Feel good factor running through the whole club, players up for it, Mowbray keeping everyone on it. 3-0, and a standing ovation for jaydon.

How do you score three quarters of a goal?

Currently got a bad case myself at the mo...

Opposing themselves will do them no favours whatsoever. That would give us a guaranteed 3 points I reckon.

Think we might actually break the Crewe-doo and smash them 3/4/5-0, given the way we are playing and they way they're supposedly defending. Unfortunately I've sacrificed this game for the modern delight that is a Tinder date. Already regretting the decision.

Good luck with your date...can't blame the lady for your 'stupidity' (sorry) in arranging to see her instead of watching the sky blues. Perhaps you should suggest a bit of football before a candlelight dinner. That way you see the sky blues; eat well and....hopefully round off the evening with at least a peck on the cheek

I once took a girl to see us play Wimbledon at Selhurst Park.

Her husband proposed at the Bernabau, Half Time v Barcelona.

Can't imagine why he won her heart.

That's also probably the last time we beat Middlesbrough, Spurs or Wimbledon. When's the last time we won the first 4?
